The Best Thanksgiving Dishes You Need To Make

Pumpkin Pie

One of the best Thanksgiving desserts is of course pumpkin pie. While you probably have your tried and tested recipe for the pie, here are some things to remember. Making the pie dough ahead of Thanksgiving will give you less stress in cooking your other dishes. On the day, just roll it out and place in the baking pan.

Make sure the butter is very cold for a flaky crust and if you have it, apple cider vinegar makes the dough more crusty. Partially bake the crust so that when you add the pumpkin filling it doesn’t go soggy. While a lot of recipes call for regular sugar, brown sugar is actually the most effective.
